At Gamescom 2018, Capcom has revealed some new info and fresh screenshots of the Resident Evil 2 remake that will be out in early 2019.
Much like in the original game, the Resident Evil 2 remake includes two playable characters. We’ve already seen Leon Kennedy earlier this year, and now Capcom has given us screenshots and info for Claire Redfield’s campaign.
Anyway, you can read more details about what Claire Redfield will be doing down below. All info shared here is from Capcom’s official press release.
“The genre-defining masterpiece Resident Evil 2 returns, completely rebuilt from the ground up with breath-taking visuals, modernized controls and a deeper narrative experience. Showcased at gamescom for the first time today, players join college student Claire Redfield as she searches for her missing brother, Chris. As she arrives in Raccoon City, she’s thrown into the middle of a zombie outbreak taking over the city. Dodging dangers left and right, Claire runs to safety in the Raccoon City Police Station. As she tries to find a way out of this nightmare, Claire finds Sherry Birkin, a young girl abandoned in the underground area beneath the police station. Together they face the iconic series boss and mutating enemy ‘G’. Will Claire and Sherry make it out the Police Station alive or will they run into further dangers? She’ll have to battle for their lives as she takes on this living and breathing nightmare creature.”
